THE CINEMA LOUNGE

[-Arya-]

White Noise was such a mess. Good first hour, but then deflated so badly in the second hour.

White Noise was such a mess. Good first hour, but then deflated so badly in the second hour.

It felt like two completely different movies.

Watched The Fablemans to bring my total for the year to 120 flicks. An even 10 a month. Liked it overall, and a lot of it really spoke to me. I did not expect it to end where it did though. I get it, it just caught me off guard.

It makes perfect sense, but it was still shocking when the kid grew upon to become famed filmmaker Tommy Wiseau.

It's all a setup for The Fabelmans 2: Fish Movie in which Sammy gets his breakthrough directing a shark movie called "Mandibles".

Speaking of CINEMA and Tommy Wiseau. I still can't believe Orson Welles stole this shot from him.

I still haven't recovered from learning this year that Tom Cruise ripped off one of his best stunts from New York Ninja.

 

[Kane52630]

Man, New York Ninja goes into my pantheon of great bad movies. It would make for a perfect triple feature with Samurai Cop & Miami Connection.

Happy New Year from me and Jayne!

Me, too.

Time to remember the best moment in film of 2022.

Unhinged Sophie Turner.

i am 100% here for this:

Meanwhile, on Team Oppenheimer, a sea of these strange looking things:

It would be absolutely hilariously if the movie caused the revival of porkpie hats.

I just watched The Menu and I really wish I had seen this in a packed theater. That was glorious. Glass Onion may be my favorite comedy of the year but nothing in that one made me laugh as hard as

"Tyler's Bull****"

It was great seeing it with a crowd.

"Do you have student loans?"
"No..."
"You're going to die."

Got a huge reaction.

My entire theater laughed at that, it was glorious.

 

[3rdstone]

The Menu is so high on my watching list right now, as is Decision To Leave. But I might watch The Last Movie Star from 2017 in between, since I just learned that was the last film Burt Reynolds did and it feels like his perfect last movie.

Between you and @Kane52630 in the separate thread for The Menu, there's no way I'm not getting Five Guys for lunch today.

Haven't seen The Menu yet but the case for becoming a vegan just keeps getting stronger...
